Lu Mo shook his head with a smile. Sure enough, every sip and every bite is preordained. He Weishao was a womanizer and fickle-minded man. No woman could control him. But after meeting Meng Huishan, he reformed himself. Not to mention attracting bees and butterflies, he didn't even dare to look at the beauties on the street.

He was so well-behaved that one might suspect he was possessed by the spirit of Liu Xiahui (a legendary figure known for his chastity and virtue).

Lu Mo left the company, first dropping He Weishao off at home, then drove to Ye Qingqing's place. The beauty pageant was being held at the Pingjiang Cultural Center, and the audience was packed. Ye Qingqing and her group were sitting in the front row, where they could see very clearly.

The competition was still ongoing, but it had already entered the later stages. Lu Mo hadn't arrived yet; he was stuck in traffic and couldn't move for a long time. The line of cars was getting longer and longer, so Lu Mo had no choice but to call Ye Qingqing and ask her not to leave after the competition was over.

"Hmm, take your time. Actually, I can take a taxi back by myself." Ye Qingqing felt that Lu Mo didn't need to come and pick her up. She wasn't some delicate, helpless girl.

"I'll be right there, don't wander off," Lu Mo instructed, a little flustered inside.

He had a premonition that something was going to happen, and he repeatedly told Ye Qingqing not to wander around and that it would be best if someone was with her.

Ye Qingqing chuckled, "There are so many people here, who would want to harm me? Don't be so nervous."

The scene was brightly lit and packed with people; what could possibly happen?

But she was still very touched and sweet, and promised not to wander off, "Okay... I promise I won't wander off, I'll be good."

After chatting for a few more minutes, Ye Qingqing hung up the phone, her eyes full of smiles. Ruan Yingzi, who was next to her, scoffed. She hated it when people showed off their love in front of single people, especially with such a lewd smile... So annoying.

I wonder where her Zhu Zi went and why she hasn't come back yet.

well!

Ruan Yingzi had no interest in watching the beautiful women perform on stage. She was lovesick and kept stuffing popcorn into her mouth. When she was thirsty, she drank cola. Before she knew it, she had finished a whole tub of popcorn and a can of cola. Her burps tasted like cola.

"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."

Ruan Yingzi burped again, her stomach was bloated and uncomfortable. Ye Qingqing also felt a little uncomfortable. After sitting for more than an hour and eating some oranges provided by the organizer, she couldn't hold it in any longer either.

As soon as the two left the audience seats, Ye Yuanzhe also got up and went to a secluded place. He took out his phone to make a call and whispered, "The target is the one in red. Find a way to distract the other one."

He couldn't afford to offend the Ruan family, nor did he want to.

He only wanted Ye Qingqing to die.

They must die tonight too.

Ye Yuanzhe sneered silently, his eyes gleaming with bloodlust. Before he even arrived in Pingjiang, he had already devised a perfect plan: he would make Ye Qingqing die in an accident, an accident that even if Sherlock Holmes were reborn, he would not be able to solve the case.

Back in his seat, the competition was almost over, and the final round of voting had begun. Ye Xunmei sat upright on the judges' panel, wearing a polite smile, but he was clearly distracted.

He looked down on all the things that were selected.

But these are all mediocre things; each one has powerful backers—they are sponsors of this competition—so his opinion is irrelevant.

Ye Xunmei was in a bad mood. His scrutinizing gaze swept over the last few people. When he saw Sun Yurong, his brows furrowed even more. It was this girl. If he were to choose, she wouldn't even make the top ten.

It's unbelievable that they've managed to squeeze into the top six.

Ye Xunmei knew what was going on. Sun Yurong had hooked up with a wealthy tycoon. That tycoon had never seen much of the world, and when he saw Sun Yurong, he was amazed by her beauty. She was also a college student from a prestigious university, so of course he would treat her like his precious darling!

The wealthy sponsor generously became the biggest sponsor of the competition, with only one request: that Sun Yurong win a prize. He was somewhat self-aware enough not to ask for the championship.

Ye Xunmei glanced down at the audience and, not seeing Ye Qingqing, felt a sudden unease and inexplicably panicked.
